“…In previous studies in Turkey, India, and China, the average duration of the disease ranged from 13-27 months, but our result, 19 months, was consistent with the result of Hu et al [7,12,14]. In pediatric vitiligo, a family history of vitiligo from 3.3% to 46% has been reported [6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13]. However, Topal et al noted a family history in 27% of patients, which was similar to our findings [6].…”

“…The prevalence of pediatric vitiligo in girls was reported in previous studies; in Korea and China, however, a practically equal incidence in girls and boys was noticed [10,14,15]. In Turkey, Topal et al and Gonul et al reported almost similar results in adults with vitiligo [6]. In contrast, we observed gender equality in children [10,14].…”

“…Although there have been several studies about pediatric vitiligo in Korea, China, India, the United States, and Kuwait, only one study was done in Turkey in 2016 [1,4,[6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13]. To our knowledge, this was the first study that separately compared serum vitamin D levels in girls and boys with vitiligo.…”

Aim: In this study, we aimed to investigate the clinical profile of pediatric vitiligo in Turkey by analyzing differences in gender, clinical features, triggering factors, age of onset, duration of disease, atopy, familial history, and sun exposure in order to report the serum vitamin D levels of children with vitiligo. Material and Method: During a six-month period, 39 children with vitiligo and 39 healthy controls were studied. Demographic details were noted, and dermatological examination was performed to note the areas involved, leukotrichia, and halo nevus. 25-OH vitamin D was carried out by chemiluminescent enzyme immunoassay. Results: The group of girls with vitiligo was compared for serum 25-OH vitamin D levels. Significant differences were found between the girls in the control group, even if there were no significant differences between the group of boys with vitiligo and the control group. There were statistically significant differences in 25-OH vitamin D levels between the groups of girls and boys with vitiligo. Only 12 children had a history of more than 15 minutes of sunshine exposure per day, and a significant difference was noted among the boys. Vitamin D deficiency and insufficiency was found in 20 (5%) and 46 (1%) of children, respectively. Discussion: The antioxidant properties of vitamin D show protection from vitiligo. The low levels of vitamin D in girls with vitiligo are caused by concealing clothing, no daily supplementation of vitamin D, exposure to sunlight, more indoor work, and dark skin. These factors may contribute to the pathogenesis of vitiligo. Keywords Children; Vitamin D; Vitiligo | The Annals of Clinical and Analytical Medicine Vitamin D levels in pediatric vitiligo

Bu çalışmada, kliniğimize başvuran psoriazis tanılı hastaların klinik ve sosyodemografik özelliklerinin araştırılması amaçlanmıştır. Materyal ve Metot: Çalışmamız Ocak 2017 ile Şubat 2019 tarihleri arasında kliniğimize başvuran ve psoriazis tanısı almış 298 hastanın dosyalarının retrospektif olarak gözden geçirilmesiyle yapıldı. Tüm hastaların yaş, cinsiyet, psoriazisin klinik tipleri, artrit varlığı, tırnak tutulumu, aile öyküsü, hastalık başlangıç yaşı, sigara ve alkol kullanım durumu ve almış olduğu tedaviler gibi parametreleri kaydedildi. Bulgular: Çalışmaya katılan 298 hastanın 130'u (%43,6) kadın, 168'i (%56,4) erkekti. Hastalığın ortalama başlangıç yaşı 21.7±16.4 idi. Aile öyküsü hastaların %27,9'unda(83 kişi) pozitifti. Artrit oranı %11,7 (35 kişi) iken, tırnak tutulum oranı %26,2 (78 kişi) idi. En sık görülen klinik tip psoriazis vulgaristi. Sigara içme oranı %28,9 (86 kişi) ve alkol alım oranı %1,3 (4 kişi) idi. En sık kullanılan sistemik tedavi ajanı metotreksat(%24.5), en az kullanılan sistemik tedavi ajanı ise biyolojik ajanlar(%8.1) olarak saptandı. Sonuç: Çalışmamızdaki veriler psoriazisin klinik ve demografik özelliklerinin değerlendirildiği literatürdeki diğer çalışmalara benzer şekildeydi.
